A known unknown as DR would say

Would rather like to see Africa. Sicily and Normandy are the least interesting theatres from Axis perspective.

In yesterdays livechat something was mentioned about an 43-45 western europe area.

43 45 western europa should be!
playing this era on TOAW, amazing!

Normandy would be challenging for the Allies if logistics were done in a way to simulate extended overland movement of fuel and supplies.  Africa really the same as offensives tended to peter out when the supply trains hit their limit.  Good maneuver opportunities if the scale was kept to Company/Battalion size units.  HPS has the western Europe and Africa pretty well locked up I think though.

I'm an WitP:AE fanboy so maybe something on that scale which includes resource/oil supply/fuel movement. 

It will also need to have a big naval component in it and somehow include Italy and North Africa. It simply doesn't make sense to see the western campaigns without their inclusion.

Agreed. You can probably get away with an abstract naval game for the West 43-45 and certainly for War In The East, but not for the "Mediterranean" theatre. I would love to fight RN vs RM battles centred around supply missions to Malta, Greece and North Africa [:)]; bringing back to life those good looking Italian ships and the Royal Navy vessels with heroic war records in that theatre - Warspite, Renown, Illustrious, Ark Royal, Penelope, Ajax, Orion, Coventry, Sheffield, HMAS Sydney, Upholder, Torbay etc etc...the list is endless.

I'd prefer the next project to be a WitE expansion pack that includes production.

atm im to busy to be happy about WitE to think already on something else

But someone else is thinking [;)]

if they would bring 10 games like this out in 1 month i would prob would make my misses VERY unhappy....broke,no more attention,zombie,answers like ...i have to take moskou

WITE will be awesome...just like all of GGs games.


I would like to see a War in Europe based on the WITPAE engine...if that is possible... i think the Ground Combat resolution system could also be used for a European theater game...

Course that game would be HUGE!!!

40-45 would be better [:D]

You got to be kidding![:-]

It will take me 5 years to play through WiTE.

War in the West would be great especially if the Med was included and contrary to whats been said before there are those of us insane enough to play a linked War in the East/West and War in the Pacific monster game.

What about hypothetical NATO vs. WARSAW land battle in the 80's at this scale?
